Just because I drill in Mississippi, doesn't mean I live there. < Hunter's gonna conduct some SERE school refresher training with me for that one.

Trip was awesome: ok, not really. Some of my civilian counterparts were disappointing to say the least as it seemed like the war was an inconvience for them. Alot of things didn't seem right and it was as if we (civvies) had not learned anything from Iraq. The best though was the threat of a performance counseling from my boss because of "lack of tact" in my email correspondence. DUH!

My trip was cut short due to a 3 week course I need to attend down at Ft. Benning (finally got a confirmed reservation). Looks like I'm finally gonna be bona fide!

My superviser was a little shocked when I told him why I needed to RTB CONUS early (I heard multiple times "How old are you again?" (stupid age waiver)) but it was humorous when I told him what I did in the Guard. "You know all that stuff that they say is too dangerous for us to do? Yeah, well, that's exactly what I do in the Guard only for less money." cricket...cricket...cricket...

Nothing wrong with 5/19... but to each there own, especially since the Bn is all over the place now... And I am not sure about that "John Denver" thing - of course Joe Walsh did sing about the "Rocky Mountain Way" - but I digress - you can't lose if you reside in the Rocky Mountain Empire (other than you lose out on humidity, ocean views and the sort).
